#1 Drop two, at the same target point, with the second one just slightly delayed, timed to enter the cavity formed by the first before the rubble blasted out by the first falls back in. Or drop 10, each phased to follow similarly. Ought to be able to burrow through any cover, as long as your targeting and timing are accurate enough.
Heck, maybe we could burrow to the mantle and open up a volcano.

#2 "boggles the mind" Yes, I imagine it does a fairly good job of rearranging one's innards as well.

#3 But Obumble would never use such a device against his allies.

#6 ...If only we had the stones to say nothing about the attack afterwards other than, "Wun't us."

#7 Personally, I want the ability to steer comets from the Oort cloud to precision strikes. A 200m diameter comet on the coordinates would do far more than a dozen of these MOPs. Would also scare the crap out of a few dozen other enemies, it would.

#8 I still want the rods from God option then have the WH say it was just a meteor.

#9 Oort cloud to precision strikes would have a long "time to target" but make really nice video.
